Im looking to replace my PSU with something better, but not to pricey. I currently have a 400w psu and want to go to maybe 500w.

Yep they're decent PSUs, BeQuiet have been making PSUs for years and they're always well made.

Just another point re that PSU, is it modular?

Thanks, do you know what MTBF stands for in the specs?

So the life of the PSu then?

well, yes and no.

the psu could develop a fault at anytime, it happens.

it could go on to last years and years, many psus do.
